An Excellent Resource to Help Us Hand Down Confident Faith

"Alister McGrath was an atheist when he started studying physics as a young man. But by the time he finished at university he was convinced that Christianity could bring together his scientific passions with many of the questions that lay outside the realms of science. 

Since that time, he’s built up some serious credentials, including doctoral degrees in both science and theology. And he has been teaching, preaching, and writing on the subject for over 30 years. To say he is a prolific author is a bit of an understatement. His author page on Amazon runs onto seven pages. These books run the gamut from scholarly tomes, to pastoral works, to biographies, even some fiction."

Today I am very happy to share with you links to a fantastic pod-cast which will help you find solid answers to important "why" questions with Alister McGrath and Jim Stump from BioLogos. I firmly believe we grandparents/parents need to know the "whys", so we are able to teach them to the children we love - why they are able to believe God is real, the Bible is true, God and science do go together, and God is good. When we teach the ones we love these "whys", they will be able to have a confident faith.

Happily there are resources to help us do this - and the podcasts from BioLogos are an excellent source for us - we listen/read, learn, and are then able to teach the ones we love. Please check out the podcast at this link - https://biologos.org/podcast-episodes/alister-mcgrath-journey-of-science-story-of-faith - Alister McGrath - Journey of Science, Story of Faith.
